About CSF

The California Scholarship Federation is an organization that was set up to recognize and honor high school students for academic achievement (there is no scholarship money associated with this designation, however, students may apply for the annual scholarship). 

 

CSF Student Membership

Eligible students become members by submitting applications based on their report card grades. Membership is for one semester, and membership drives are held each semester within established periods dictated by the State bylaws.

 

Requirements for Semester Membership:

 

Students earn membership in CSF if they apply and have earned 10 (ten) CSF points. Points are earned on grades from the previous semester according to the following scale.

A = 3 CSF points*
B = 1 CSF point*
C = 0 CSF points
D or F in any course, even if not counted for CSF, disqualifies the student from membership

*1 extra point for an A or a B in an AP, IB, or Honors-designated course, not to exceed two such points per semester

  • 4 (Four) of the 10 (ten) points must come from List I courses.
  • 7 (Seven) of the 10 (ten) points (including the four List I points) must come from List I and II courses. Of course, all seven points may come from List I.
  • The last 3 (three) points may come from any list.
  • Only 5 (five) courses (or 25 credits) may be used to earn the 10 (ten) points.
 

What is Sealbearer Status?

A sealbearer is a senior who has attained life membership status. If a student is a member of CSF for four semesters* they qualify for life member status.

 

* One of the qualifying four semesters must be during the student’s senior year of high school and must include their senior grades, in other words, the student must submit their fall semester grades of their senior year to qualify for a life membership.

 

The sealbearer receives two honors: 

      1) A gold seal from CSF is placed on their high school diploma.

      2)  Students are recognized during the graduation processional by the optional gold stole.
